Will I be induced if I keep having episodes of reduced movements?

I’m currently 36+5 and have been in 4 times so far with reduced movements. I have low PAPP-A so have been advised to keep an eye on movements but now that I’m getting closer to term I’m worried about being induced. This is my second baby and with my first I went naturally at 39 weeks, so an induction scares me! Obviously I want what’s best for the baby but I feel like I’m talking myself out of going into triage again just incase they suggest an induction! Has anyone else experienced an induction due to reduced movements?

Hello everyone. I have a son who was born April 5, 2024... And I just found out that I am pregnant with baby number 2, but little bean is also due in April 2027. For those of you that have kids born in the same month, how do you handle or prepare for this?

Anyone else? My first born was doing it by now.

Baby head down and engaged

This is my second pregnancy and I’m 37+2 (due 5th Oct). I got told at my midwife appointment baby is engaged. Can this mean labour could come soon?

42 weekers only please

I am 42 +1 today. I still am measured at 1cm
and 50% effaced. Everything looked great on scans. I can’t remember with my previous pregnancies how dilated I was before birth. How dilated were you before active labor?

To induce or not to induce?

I know this is a very personal choice, but I was given the option to get induced around 39+ weeks and as a FTM I am not sure what to do.
I am struggling with sciatica pain, carpal tunnel and getting very uncomfortable (like everyone else I am sure!). I don't have any other issues, and this pregnancy has been good. Doc said this is a risk reduction option and results in fewer emergency* c-sections.

*Edited to add this for clarification.

Any thoughts?
